A native of Metro Detroit, Eden graduated from Wayne State University with a BFA in Theatre Design & Technology, specializing in Lighting Design. Her journey in the arts has carved an inspired career as a lighting designer with a sincere dedication to every project she is invited on.
Eden’s approach to lighting design is multifaceted and deeply thoughtful. She sees light not merely as a technical element but as a powerful tool for storytelling and emotional resonance. Eden understands that light has the ability to evoke mood, shape space, and guide focus, and she leverages this understanding to craft immersive and impactful experiences on stage. One of Eden's key strengths lies in her ability to connect with the artistic vision of each production she works on. She collaborates closely to understand the thematic nuances and narrative arc of the work.
Eden's off-stage world is equally engaging. Retired from her own ice hockey career, she now guides aspiring skaters as a dedicated coach. She adores the time she gets to spend on the ice, mentoring the youth of hockey as well as being an advocate for women’s position in the sport - her goal being to create a supportive coaching environment in contrast to the ones she experienced growing up.
In every role, Eden strives to create experiences that foster genuine connection.
